Updated disc cache

2015-04-03 Thread Vincent Sanders
I know several RISC OS users regularly use the CI builds and have had issues with the disc cache. This is partly a request for assistance and partly a warning. I have recently changed the disc based caching to use fewer small files. This change is not backwards compatible and will leave the old

Disc cache updates

2014-12-01 Thread Vincent Sanders
